Christmas, Christmas time is here, time for ASS, and time for cheer! Austin, Tori, and Bill gather together to exchange the gift of anime with internet friends and strangers alike with another Anime Secret Santa!

This year, our gifts are Astra Lost in Space, Godzilla Singular Point, Paprika, Alien Nine, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, and Odd Taxi. Thanks so much to each one of our Santas for these excellent picks, and of course to Kory and the Taiiku Podcast for arranging it all. Have you seen any of our picks? What do you think of them?

Coming soon to a newsstand (meaning your mailbox or email inbox) near you; Anime Herald Magazine! Sully and Austin sit down with Samantha Ferreira, the founder and editor-in-chief of Anime Herald, to talk about her journey towards creating a brand-new anime print publication in an era where anime magazines aren't exactly plentiful anymore. Samantha tells us how she came to found Anime Herald 15 years ago, how bringing the website to print has been a long-held dream of hers, how she assembled an amazing team of writers, artists, and editors to collaborate with, and what readers can expect from this exciting new era of anime commentary in printed form.

At long last, after podcasting for 8 years and counting (wow...), we have finally gone and done it; we're reviewing some Mobile Suit Gundam. Since we are very sensible and reasonable folk at TIA, we thought we would start at the very beginning. Just kidding, we picked an entry that sounded interesting to us after Austin and Bill had independently been dabbling in various Gundam entries for the past several years. Although to be fair, some people claim that the OVA we're reviewing in this episode, Mobile Suit Gundam: 08th MS Team, is a solid entry point into the franchise for beginners, but is that actually true? Let's test that theory! We're happy to welcome Coop back to the show! Coop has been on the show a number of times to talk about anime conventions, but never to actually review a series with us before. As a giant robot aficionado, we could think of no better friend of the show to have on for our first leap into the world of Gundam. Coop regularly writes for Anime News Network, including the weekly This Week in Anime Column, and contributes to releases from Discotek and AnimEigo. Check out Coop's work, social media, and podcasts here! Have you seen 08th MS Team? What do you think of it? Does it live up to the hype? Do you think it's a good entry point to Gundam or not? Let us know by sending us an email at thirdimpactanime@gmail.com and we'll discuss it on the show.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's the return of our chronically neglected sub show, Kotatsu Corner! Join us as we gather around a tiny table to chat about not-anime. Okay, maybe a little anime. Austin, Bill, and returning special guest Drew from Sideburns & Cigarettes: A Lupin III Podcast join together to chat about Superman (2025) but not before Bill and Drew talk about one of their other favorite TMS anime, Detective Conan, and its recent brand-new English dub.
